SLEEPYTIME GORILLA MUSEUM Start Second North American Tour This Week In Support Of In Glorious Times
August 1, 2007, 17 years ago
SLEEPYTIME GORILLA MUSEUM, who released their debut album for The End Records, titled In Glorious Times, in May, will begin their second North American tour tomorrow (Thursday, August 2nd).
About the upcoming tour, the band comments, "What is that plopping burn? Does it keep you up at night? Are you afraid of touching men in women's clothing? Are you willing to pay money to have your eyebrows signed by Californian novelists? Do your homework. Feed your parents. Save your shillings, and you might be able to experience these unanswerable feelings in your neighborhood, all throughout August. Hi, we love you. Let's make up a religion!"
Once again the band will be criss-crossing North America to support the new album, with labelmates STOLEN BABIES and TUB RING on select dates. All dates are below. The band toured North America this past May, a tour that followed up their successful sold-out North American spring tour with SECRET CHIEFS 3 and their first ever headlining tour of Europe.
Also, an mp3 of the song ‘Helpless Corpses Enactment’ has been posted online and can be heard here.
A video for the song can be viewed here.
